PROJECT SUMMARY To ensure that emerging technologies grow without causing illness or injury to workers and the public, a professional workforce must be prepared with the ability to anticipate, recognize, evaluate, and control exposures to hazardous materials in emerging technology workplaces. Therefore, the University of Minnesota, the University of Iowa, and University of Utah have formed the Interdisciplinary Training, Education and Research Activities for Assessing And Controlling Contaminants From Emerging Technologies (INTERACCT) Program. The objectives of the INTERACCT Program for this funding period are (i) to develop a comprehensive web-based curriculum on occupational hygiene, with emphasis on applications to worker health and safety in emerging technologies. To accomplish this objective, we will develop three online core courses for education and training in chemical hazard recognition, exposure assessment, and risk assessment. In the cores, we will demonstrate concepts with examples and illustrations drawn from the following emerging technologies: nanotechnology, additive manufacturing and novel drug delivery. Each core in the curriculum will be comprised of 10-15 web-based modules; each module, in turn, will include a carefully-constructed set of short narrated screencasts, animations, exercises, and activities. (ii) to build research in industrial hygiene skills. To accomplish this objective, we will provide interdisciplinary research experience opportunities to graduate students. (iii) To produce graduates with high levels of technical, scientific and proessional competency. To accomplish this objective, Instructors will use the curriculum to create academic and continuing education courses that develop the skills of industrial hygiene students; students in other health, science, engineering, and technology disciplines; and professionals who require continuing education on the health and safety of emerging technologies. The program is innovative because it provides flexible, online education materials that instructors can first use to train themselves, and then to train others, on topics that fit the needs of their organizations. All materials will be freely available on the web, ensuring that the INTERACCT Program has a regional, national, and global reach.

项目总结 确保新兴技术的发展不会对工人和 公共、专业的员工队伍必须具备预测、识别、评估、 并控制新兴技术工作场所的危险材料暴露。因此， 明尼苏达大学、爱荷华大学和犹他大学组成了 评估和控制的跨学科培训、教育和研究活动 新兴技术产生的污染物(INTERACCT)计划。该计划的目标 本资助期的INTERACCT计划是：(I)开发基于网络的综合 职业卫生课程，重点是#年工人健康和安全方面的应用 新兴技术。为了实现这一目标，我们将开发三个在线核心课程， 在化学危害识别、暴露评估和风险评估方面的教育和培训。 在核心部分中，我们将通过以下示例和插图来演示概念 新兴技术：纳米技术、添加剂制造和新型药物输送。每个人 课程的核心将由10-15个基于网络的模块组成；每个模块将依次 包括精心构建的一组简短的讲述截屏视频、动画、练习和 活动。(Ii)加强工业卫生技能研究。为了实现这一目标，我们将 为研究生提供跨学科的研究体验机会。(Iii)制作 具有高水平的技术、科学和专业能力的毕业生。要做到这一点 目标，讲师将使用课程来创建学术和继续教育课程 培养工业卫生专业学生的技能；其他健康、科学、工程、 和技术学科；以及需要健康和技术方面的继续教育的专业人员 新兴技术的安全。该计划具有创新性，因为它提供了灵活的、在线的 教师可以首先用来培训自己，然后再用来培训他人的教育材料 适合其组织需求的主题。所有材料都将在网上免费获得， 确保INTERACCT计划在区域、国家和全球范围内具有影响力。
